My Singapore Adventures 1: Are you a Chili Crab or Pepper Crab lover?

The JUMBO chili crab has always been a winner over the JUMBO pepper crab because of its rich yummy sauce with fried or steam buns! If you don’t know what I’m talking about, you’re missing on one of the culinary adventures of your life.

Writing Adventure @ The Writing Salon

By

After blogging 125 posts in 9 months (about one post every two days), I have this urge to improve my writing skills to appeal a lot better to the emotions of my readers. Blogging gets addicting, specially everytime you get messages from your readers on affirming how much they love some of the posts (so far, no hate comments yet 🙂 One of my passions in life is I would like to be able to promote the beauty of the Philippines via photos and words — I intend to improve on both.
…I intend to write poetically about the Philippines and my life, and the impressive lists of directors James Nave, and Allegra Huston would surely make it worthwhile.

Sunday Brunch Bday Celebration @ Lumiere

By

I’ve always wanted to eat at Lumiere and I’m glad that I got a tip from whipsmart that they actually serve the best Sunday brunch in town! … On Sunday Brunch, Lumiere only serve set menus and most of them taste great 🙂 The only complaint that my mom had was it was too much cholesterol in one meal because of the eggs 🙂 Brunch Meal + Drink + Dessert + Coffee/Tea . … The dessert was not a winner although, they created a small cake for my mom and it was really good that it was immediately wipe out 🙂 All for P650/meal (net)!

I can’t believe it that we swept all the games with Ateneo this year (I’m glad I watched all of them in Araneta except for the first UAAP regular game). … But, we Lasallians have a lot to thank you for our archrival Ateneo in today’s game: — Thank you Ateneans for putting a great fight and you make our winning a lot sweeter! — Thank you to LA for really showing his true blue spirit and he is the only one who had the guts and spirit to fight the entire green archer squad.

Carlito’s Workshop 3 — Carlito’s Coffee

By

This is the highlight of the trip —a cup of Barako Coffee and delicious Puto at Carlito’s workshop. Our only regret was we did not call in advance because he could have served us Rice Coffee and would be a unique experience.
… There are interesting art pieces all around and my friend, Maong was fascinated with the swinging wooden chair in a steel frame (middle photoo).

Best Chocolate Ganache in Manila! ?

By

My Wife loves it but too chocolatie for my taste 🙂 It’s the first time I encountered the word ganache and by defition it means rich paste of chocolate, cream, and sometimes butter. Now this taste and sounds more fattening than an icing 🙂 The entire cake tastes like death by chocolate because literally it is sooo good and sooo sweet that even if you know that it is not good for your health, you still try to eat it ! Anyway, I’m starting to taste all these best desserts in manila but this one was not even included in the list but it was tucked away in the comments of lori’s readers.

Carlito’s Workshop 2 –Photogenic House with an Outstanding Garden :)

By

When we went to Carlito’s, we were hesitant to go in because we are literally walk-ins because we did not call in advance for reservations but the brochure said it is open on Saturdays.
…Apparently, he is a very good friend of Patis Tesoro and she asked him to open up his very nice house for people visiting San Pablo.
…In this particular case when we visited, we were the ONLY people and we were entertained very well 🙂 Carlito lives with his wife and daughter but they were out in San Pablo city when we arrived.
